Get ready for the biggest Carnatic music festival of Chennai

If you are in Chennai or want to visit this month, you can join in the Chennai Music Season (formerly known as Madras Music Season).

It is one of the oldest cultural festivals in India and the largest Carnatic music festival in the area. The inaugural music festival was held in 1927!

This year's festival, which will feature both professional and amateur Carnatic performers, will take place in Chennai from December 15, 2022, to January 1, 2023.

If you enjoy Carnatic music, the festival is a fantastic venue to catch these concerts by well-known musicians since you don't get to see them very often these days.

Did you know that the festival used to include just Carnatic music for decades. But that changed over time. One may now watch vibrant dances and plays from the region as well as from other parts of the country in addition to the Carnatic musical performances.

Chennai is much more pleasant in December than it is the rest of the year, making it simpler to tour the city without the heat.
